Thanks guys! I'm not sure if there is a concrete definition for blast pipes, i designed mine to have an Xpipe right before the tips so it is the furthest away from the H-pipe (under the tranny) as possible. I read a lot of muscle car forums prior and it seemed like a common theme to get the best sound & performance by keeping with that concept.Originally posted by Omnious View PostThat whole video was just gorgeous... That little tire slippage was awesome. Quick question though, what exactly does "blast pipes" mean? I always thought it was just a pipe that sticks beyond the bumper. But this sounds more glorious than just an xpipe and blasts.
I don't know much about exhaust physics so i decided to learn via trial and error, this is the 4th iteration and its getting there. I'm hoping the ferrari ansa muffler will smooth out the higher frequency noise (over glass packs) for the 5th change.

Getting rid of the good engine... If you want to make serious power out of a 3.8, it will cost a lot more than a 2.0t with similar power numbers.Yeah I agree, it will align more with the competition. Hey, that just means easier swaps in the future assuming they don't do a complete redesign.Originally posted by ImAwesome View PostThe Tau V8 would really make the GC a competitive sports car in my opinion. I mean it is a bit of a porker. This would put it on mustang GT/Boss level
thanks manOriginally posted by MadMax View Postreally liking it in the last few pictures...

I never show though, i like to keep my car a little rough around the edges for character because the car is used daily I'm not striving for show car appearance, Its important for me for the car to look used and still driven hard.
You might spot me in a couple parking lots though, i go to a few shows to every year just to check out what new stuff people are doing and just BS.
